The Advanced Editing Bar Has Returned...

Picture 3 of 3

Now my memory is fuzzy, I should have written down the steps.  What I think I did was to go to "As the Tub Turns" forum list, then return to "Super".  I read the thread about the '57 Chevy (32482) and once I returned to "Super", the threads below it had reverted to red "Wash".  That's the gist of what I have seen, several times now.  I wish I could remember what the forum list looked like before I read 32482. I didn't want to make a half-dozen screen caps at every step, but I could if that would help.

Another shot, more carefully done

This time I made notes in an editor:

1.) Imperial at 1323 CST. First two posts yellow, all the rest are blue because I set them
that way earlier today.

2.) click yellow button thread 42453. Positions to reply #9 in the thread.  Return to forum list
via the Imperial link immediately below that post.

3.) thread 32543 is blue as should be.  32494 is still blue.  threads below, which I have never
read, have reverted to red.  ONE EXCEPTION is thread 32451 about the GE 1962 brochures. I read
this thread earlier today. It is blue and it should be blue of its own accord.  The ones
which reverted are those which I never did read. I believe that I did read the Blackstone
thread 32494 as well at some earlier time.

I guess you can't put two images in one post, so see the next one to go along with point 3 above.

Thanks Tom, I just got it to do it for me and I will work on the bug now.

 

Matt, yes I realize that about the speller check lines going off with an enter.  After googling around the internet looking for its cause I found it is because the Advanced Editor Text Input box is converted to a rich-text box and the <span id="search">Gecko </span>spell checker that FF and Chrome uses operates not as smoothly in rich-text boxes as in standard text boxes. So really the solution is to either leave the Advanced Editor turned off or when that happens right click and de-select Spell Check and then re-select it which re-highlights everything.

 

Nathan, IE9 has not been released from Beta yet.  You and only one other member is using IE9 out of 900+ or logged in members from what I can tell from the login-report.  I plan on doing some heavy duty testing with IE9 once everything else is finished and working properly (almost there actually).  I'll send you an email via the aw.org system about the testing.

Thanks Robert, that is doable.  What I think I'll do is just correct the paragraph I'm on before moving on.

 

Sort of unrelated question, but do you have any idea how to edit the word list used with Firefox for spelling correction?  There are a few words I commonly mistype and would like to remove the very similar words from the list so that they show as misspelled.  I googled it a while back and never found an answer.  Most of my problems are typos, not spelling, I've seemed to developed dyslexic typing a few years ago, I think from some meds I was on...

Robert, I've noticed this for a few days, don't know if it's really a bug or not.

 

Take a look at the posts in yellow.  I was the last poster in these and when I came back to the site only the thread I stared and posted in is Blue.  Shouldn't all the threads I was the last post in be marked blue since there is nothing new there since I was last on the site?

I pulled out of the system (just temporarily) the Mark as Wash or Spin links.  They need a bit more work, the good news is it appears I got them working perfectly in Firefox, but they are making Safari and Chrome nauseous lol.

 

You wouldn't think such a simple thing would be such a challenge, but tomorrow is another day.  I'll get it working properly.

 

Why oh why can't all browsers operate the same way, it makes web programming super hair-raising.

 

Matt does this link help: http://lifehacker.com/244497/remove-misspelled-words-from-your-firefox-dictionary

Robert, thanks, I'll check that out.

Robert,

Tried to embed a video.  It shows up in the preview but not after posting.

Did you turn something off when you pulled out?

Stay warm!
